    The song is called 'Women of Ireland' its a traditional song about the courage strength and suffering of Irish women down the centuries who have had to endure losing their sons to war famine and emigration.

      @Helen Wright Kate’s mother was Irish. The country is dear to her (she has spoken of this).

I have been a HUGE Kate Bush fan since 1985, and, more recently, a HUGE fan of Celtic Woman, the Irish group who tours all over the world and also has a long list of CD's an DVD's (of which I have them all!) - I would LOVE to see Kate do some work with them, but I am not holding my breath!!

    Translation:
    Women, Women of Ireland your glory's in the shade
    Your dreams they have gone and decayed
    The deeds you have done they all went unsung
    By no Bard or no one
    For without you there is nothing
    Except love songs in the wind
    And all of your struggles and dispair
    And there were castles in the air
    Shout it from every mountain
    From every mountain on high
    And the four winds will sigh
    For Ireland, Ireland's your glory
    And your monuments built on your sorrow and pain
    For if ever the seas and the oceans run dry
    Tears of struggles and of joy
    And all of your sadness and your pain
    Would fill the oceans up again
    Daughters, Daughters of Erin to the Cuman na mBan
    Your dream was to see Ireland free
    Thru agrarian struggles were determined to win
    And from there to begin
    There you were dressed for rebellion
    But your beauty could not hide
    Your sorrow and suffering and dispair
    And there were castles in the air
    Shout it from every mountain
    From every mountain on high
    And the four winds will sigh
    For Ireland, Ireland's your glory
    And your monuments built on your sorrow and pain
    For if ever the seas and the oceans run dry
    Tears of struggles and of joy
    And all of your sadness and your pain
    Would fill the oceans up again
    Women, Women of courage, you suffered in your silence
    You kept Ireland's spirit alive
    You were imprisoned, your people enchained
    But you never gave in
    In troubled days of old Ireland
    You were the brave ones who fought
    Through oppression and famine and dispair
    And there were castles in the air
    Shout it from every mountain
    From every mountain on high
    And the four winds will sigh
    For Ireland, Ireland's your glory
    And your monuments built on your sorrow and pain
    For if ever the seas and the oceans run dry
    Tears of struggles and of joy
    And all of your sadness and your pain
    Would fill the oceans up again

    Catherine Kate Bush. Her mother a former accomplished Irish dancer born Country Waterford, Ireland. Always knew Kate Bush looked Irish. Father a doctor and accomplished pianist. Coming from a musical family. Easy to see she has brains and the Irish Beauty, mystical and magical. You have to be Irish to sing this beautiful song.

      +Frank Ruediger Nope! When I was in my early 20's, back in 1985, I met a friend who had lived in England for a time, and he introduced me to Kate's music. He had all of her videos and her albums. He gave me a poster and loaned me a biography on Kate Bush. I was very blown away by her artistry and talent. I taught myself to sing like her so I could sing along with the albums without sounding like an idiot. I had a daughter in 1994. She grew up watching Kate's videos and learned the words and movements in all of her videos. She is now 20, and is probably one of the only girls her age to be a die-hard Kate Bush fan! Yes, I raised her right!!!! So fear not, you are NOT alone!!!! I do believe that we have many, many, many others who share our passion for Kate's music and art!

      @Peacelily yeah and the irish didn't love to raid their neighbours from time to time..... no side was innocent then. As for the language, the Scottish highland is more of a mix between the Irish Gaelic and Danish. Doubt the Scots are to blame for stealing it

    As a Kate Bush super-fan, and also a Celtic Woman super-fan, it is thrilling to hear Kate sing a song in the old Irish language of Gaelic! I love to hear that language - it is just musical to hear it spoken! I also have Irish heritage, so there's that!!!! Thanks for posting this! It is one that I have never heard!

    • @RobSmith2016

    • @beverlykrebs4372
      @beverlykrebs4372 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I didn't know that! Thank you! I saw a written article by a reporter (or some media person!) who was interviewing Chloe Agnew (of Celtic Woman), and they were quoting her as she said something about Gaelic, but since it was a written article, the writer could have spelled the word the way they thought it was spelled. The interview was verbal between that person and Chloe, and was just written up by the reporter. Again, thanks so much for that info!

    • @beverlykrebs4372
      @beverlykrebs4372 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They (Celtic Woman) do an a capela version in harmony of Danny Boy that would have you sobbing your heart out! And on their 2nd CD, Orla Fallon performs Isle of Innisfree playing harp and singing with her very strong Irish lilt and that will bring tears also! So many of their songs are emotional. Personally, I lose it when they perform Amazing Grace, with piper Andrew (who travels on tour with them and teases that he is the "5th Celtic Woman"!) That song was played at my dad's funeral, then my mum's. Gets me every time! I got my tickets yesterday to the Celtic Woman show in Asheville, NC this coming April. 4th row - not too bad. I'm usually in 1st row but this year we just didn't have the money to buy PBS seats. Hope you get to see them live!

    Partial Translation: (strange verse at the end)
    There's a woman in Ireland who'd give me a gem and my fill to drink,
    There's a woman in Ireland to whom my singing is sweeter than the music of strings
    .....
    There's a woman in Ireland who'd envy me if I got naught but a kiss
    From a woman at a fair, isn't it strange, and the love I have for them
    There's a woman I'd prefer to a battalion, and a hundred of them whom I will never get
    And an ugly, swarthy man with no English has a beautiful girl

    "Mna na hEireann" (Women of Ireland) was written by the late Sean O Riada. Sarah Brightman sings the tune with different words. More infamously the Christians stole the tune for their best selling song "Words". Eventually they settled with O Riada's estate. The Christians made an excellent video which caught the romantic mood of the song.

      lankyangie96 Couldn't agree more. Shockingly good. IMHO her pronunciation is better (and more comprehensible!) than many non-native Gaelic-speaking Irish performers.
